Common questions in Constantine
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Tile repair in Constantine without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Constantine. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
